Love in the Red Chamber is full of Xiaoxiang

In early autumn, the heat has not faded.The Maemi on the branch is tirelessly venting its irritability.

The Xiaoxiang Pavilion seemed very quiet, and there were some old women and rough girls lying on the kang in disorder.Xueyan and Chunxian are resting in the east room, while Lin Daiyu is taking a nap in the back room.

Zicuckoo is sitting on the corridor doing needlework.Hundreds of green bamboos in the courtyard look even more green under the sunlight, and some mottled shadows are printed on the window panes.

Zicuckoo looked at the parrot hanging on the moon hole, and was drowsy with half-closed eyes.She lowered her head and started sewing for a while, but she was so sleepy that she didn't know where to poke the needle in her hand.

At this time, she heard two coughs from the back room, thinking that the girl must have woken up.Busily carrying needles and threads into the house, I lifted the red curtain embroidered with plum blossom patterns in gold, and saw Daiyu sitting up.

"It's still early, why doesn't the girl go to bed?" Zijuan put down her needlework, and hurried over to lift up the soft smoke curtain, and hung it on the silver hook.

"Pour me a bowl of tea." I don't know if it was because she couldn't sleep well, but Daiyu's body was a little limp and her neck was sore.

Zijuan poured tea and chatted with Daiyu: "Miss, have you heard? It is said that the new daughter-in-law of Xue's family is very powerful, and now she is controlling the dumb king. They have only been married for a few days. It is said that There have been a lot of troubles, and now both governments know the reputation of that daughter-in-law, and they all say that she is more powerful than this." He secretly compared two fingers.

Daiyu's face darkened, and she reprimanded lightly: "Why do you become such a gossip, if you also learn how others tell stories, I dare not want you."

Zijuan hurriedly said: "My good girl, I don't want to say anything." Seeing Daiyu's displeasure, Zijuan dared not continue.

Daiyu saw that there was a manuscript on the table, which was written when she got up early, and now there are only two articles left, so she wants to get out of bed to write.

When Zijuan was about to persuade Daiyu to rest more, she heard someone talking in the yard: "Sister Lin, is she up?"

Zicuckoo rushed out to greet her, and seeing that Tanchun was here, she said with a smile, "Morning, Miss San, our girls are just getting up."

Tanchun lifted the curtain by himself and went in. He saw Daiyu standing by the desk, holding a rosewood rose chair.

Tanchun shook his fan and said with a smile: "I thought I disturbed Sister Lin's lunch break, but I didn't expect Sister Lin to be in good health today. By the way, I heard the old lady tell Sister Lin to change her prescription yesterday. I didn't know that Sister Lin was taking a new medicine. Are you still used to it?"

Daiyu hurriedly let Tanchun sit on the rose chair, and sat down on a golden embroidered pier herself. She said with a smile, "It's the third sister who deliberately came to ask, thank you for remembering. I just drank the newly prescribed medicine once. What's the effect?" I don’t know yet, but the smell is a bit stronger.”

Looking at the Ouyang Xun's (Preface to the Orchid Pavilion) hanging on the wall, Tanchun admired: "Sister Lin really has some good things in her house. I like Shu Geng's regular script, but I didn't have it when I was learning to write." Learn from him, and learn from Zhao Mengfu."

Lin Daiyu said with a smile: "These two have unique styles. Ouyang's calligraphy is strong and unique in structure, while Zhao's calligraphy is beautiful and elegant. They all say that the third sister is bold, and you like Ouyang's calligraphy. It seems that they are not bad. Three My sister's handwriting is good, why don't you write a slip and send it to me."

Tanchun was also modest: "My handwriting is not very good. It was sister Lin who read it. Hey, I was still thinking about autumn, and it was time to write chrysanthemum poems. I didn't know that this year was so incomplete. The second sister If you have a family, it’s hard to come back, so what if you come back. The last time I secretly wiped tears in my wife’s room, it didn’t make me sad. Speaking of it, the second sister is too weak-tempered, and the Sun family is too useless.”

When Lin Daiyu heard about Yingchun's experience, she couldn't help feeling a little emotional.This is even true for those who have the influence of their mother's family. It's a pity that I have no father and no mother. It's a pity that I'm an orphan, how will the future experience be better.

Seeing the tears in Daiyu's eyes, Tanchun didn't dare to continue, and hurriedly said: "I don't think it's a big deal if my second sister is missing. She doesn't know how to do it at all. It's just that sister Bao has a new life." Sister-in-law, you won’t come to our house now, and I heard that Sister Shi won’t come now. My poetry club is not doing well, and it’s chosen in autumn, so it seems that it’s destined to disperse.”

"It's all going to break up, doesn't the third sister even understand this truth?" Daiyu sighed slightly.

Tanchun was so blocked by Daiyu's words that he didn't know what to say. Just as he was about to change the subject, he saw the servant beside Tanchun rushing over and said, "I've been looking for a girl for several times and I haven't seen you yet." Miss Lin, it turns out that Miss Lin is here. Miss Lin and Miss Lin should go to the wife's room to have a look, it is said that the lady in the palace is sick, and the wife is in a hurry to visit the palace."

Both of them were startled when they heard that, so Daiyu added another dress and went to Mrs. Wang's room hand in hand with Tanchun.

Let's say that Mrs. Wang was very anxious when she heard about Yuanchun's illness, and hurriedly asked Caixia and others to make up for herself.Li Wan and Sister Feng also arrived, and Sister Feng comforted her: "Madam, please don't worry, maybe the empress misses his wife and gave the wrong message. Maybe it's nothing serious. I just asked my wife to enter the palace to visit my empress."

Mrs. Wang was naturally confused, so she could only pray: "I hope that the message was wrong." With the help of the maids, Mrs. Wang was finally dressed neatly, and nothing was left behind.There was no handkerchief in hand, and when she turned to ask for it, she saw Daiyu sitting there.Suddenly awakened Mrs. Wang's thoughts, she thought to herself that she must go to ask for a will when she enters the palace today, otherwise it will be too late to save trouble in the future.Before getting on the sedan chair, Mrs. Wang asked Li Wan and Sister Feng to speak softly in front of Jia Mu, so as not to startle the old man.

The matter of Concubine Yuan's illness alarmed the whole of the two houses. When Youshi heard about it, she hurried to Jiamu's room to wait for the news.Mrs. Wang entered the palace at the end of the year, and now it's time for the You card, but she has not come back yet.Everyone gathered in Jia's mother's room. After all, Jia's mother was an elderly person. Naturally, she was not very happy when she heard that her proudest granddaughter was sick, so she half-lyed on the couch and asked Glass to beat herself with a beauty. Gently beat the leg.

Lin Daiyu and Tanchun sat around Jiamu's couch.Xichun, on the other hand, seemed a little lonely in the corner, and didn't talk to the maid.Baoyu came back from school, and rushed here after hearing about it.First, he greeted Mother Jia in a proper manner, and then saluted the other elders.Then quietly asked Daiyu beside her in a low voice: "How is my sister today?"

"Okay, thank you for thinking about it." Daiyu's body is not very comfortable, and she doesn't want to take care of the concubine Yuan's affairs, and because of lack of sleep in the morning, she feels more and more uncomfortable.

Just when everyone was getting impatient, Jia Lian came over and said to Mother Jia: "Old lady, there is a message from the palace that the old lady should also come into the palace. In addition, let the daughter-in-law go with her."

Sister Feng heard that she had to wait on Jiamu to change clothes with Yuanyang and others.Although Jia Mu is old, she is like a mirror in her heart. She always feels that something is wrong with today's incident, and what serious illness the empress has.Sister Feng commanded once, and at the same time she had to go back to her room and change her clothes.She quietly called Jia Lian aside and asked, "Does it matter?"

Jia Lian looked anxious: "My good grandma, now is not the time to say this. The matter is urgent. You should change your clothes and go with the old lady. There is no delay."

Sister Feng didn't expect that the matter would be so big. She went back to her room to tidy up, and then went to the palace with Jia Mu in a sedan chair.The three of them didn't come back until the start of the watch, and the two houses looked at each other eagerly for a long time.

Mrs. Wang's complexion was dull, so she had no choice but to hold on.Mother Jia looked tired, her body was failing, and she felt that something was wrong with this toss.Jia Zheng and others sent the imperial physician to give Jia Mu a diagnosis and treatment overnight, and they didn't go to sleep until the middle of the night.

When it was almost five o'clock, Mrs. Wang dreamed that Yuan Chun came to bid her farewell in her dream. She was still dressed in palace attire, but her face was sad and she shed tears and said nothing.Mrs. Wang hurriedly called her: "Big girl, what's the matter with you, why don't you talk?"

Yuan Chunfang cried: "Mother, my daughter has hated you so much all her life."

Mrs. Wang was puzzled and quickly asked: "Why do you hate me? You have enjoyed all the glory and wealth in your life, and it is beyond the reach of ordinary people. How can a mother harm her daughter?"

Yuan Chun sighed: "My mother raised me for more than [-] years, it was nothing. I came to say goodbye to my mother. Mother hides and takes care, and my daughter has to go."

"Big girl, where are you going?" Mrs. Wang felt a twinge of pain in her heart.

"I have to go to my father's dream and talk to him about how to keep the inheritance. Mother don't give it away."

Mrs. Wang saw Yuan Chun's body drifting farther and farther away, and then disappeared.There is only a sound of music in the air, like a woman's long sigh: "For 20 years, right and wrong have been distinguished, and durian flowers are blooming to illuminate the palace. The three springs compete for the early spring scene, and the tiger and the rabbit meet and return with a big dream."

Mrs. Wang felt that she was still looking for Yuan Chun in her dream, but she was woken up by the people around her.Mrs. Wang opened her eyes and saw that it was a dream.

Seeing Caixia crying and lying on the ground, Mrs. Wang faintly felt something was wrong.

Choking with sobs, Caixia said, "Ma'am, your empress is dead."

Mrs. Wang suddenly felt dark in front of her eyes and fell down on the bed.

Daiyu was still in her quilt, and was startled when she heard Zijuan and Xueyan rushing to report. She wondered who in the house would not envy the empress's life's glory and wealth.

Knowing that there was no chance of delay, Daiyu hurriedly dressed and washed, helped Xueyan out of the Xiaoxiang hall and went to Jiamu's room in a hurry.

Mother Jia is an elderly person, how can she withstand such a big blow, her tears are not dry: "When I was a child, someone told her fortune, and they all said that this child is very lucky. I didn't expect her to be close in longevity. I saw her too. Poor thing, when we visited in the past two months, we saw that she had put on a lot of weight, but I didn't expect this to be a sign. After all, she still hasn't escaped this catastrophe."

Baoyu was taught by Yuanchun when he was young, but now that his elder sister has gone, he cried and fell into tears in Jiamu's arms.
